I am not sure if it is just me but I am obviously new to this website. I hate to sound like a bitch but this website crashes on me all the time and is extremely slow to load sometimes. Also I flat out can not use it on my phone I just get server messages and for me the only way to upload pictures is through my phone. I love every other aspect of this website but it really seems out dates. If i knew it could get redone and updated for more efficient use I would be willing to chip in a some money. This is just my opinion but I am wondering if anyone else feels the same or gets the same annoying problems I do.

You guys are seeing what i said in the wrong way, I never said anything bad this is definitely the best website for z info i have no question about it. i am not also used to the speed demon ways of website i actually mean its slow, i have waited 10 minutes numerous times for the website to load and it not loading. i know i am 17 and i am used to everything working perfectly but i dont have access to a computer always and my camera is my phone and my computer. thats why i said id like to be able to use it on my phone. i am just saying i think this website needs a server upgrade possibly from the growth, either way i would use the website im just saying itd be nicer to not have to wait so long and if anyone else was having these problems like i am

You're shirking responsibility for your statements. Just own up to what you said and move on.

I am not insulting the website or you fellow z people in any way. When I wrote this website is out dated I literally was saying that because there are times of the day when I flat out can not use the website. I have school til 3 an work til 6 and when I work on my car I oikebto he able to check on hear for some tips with things and for example right now it took me 20 minutes of reloading the page and getting errors. Also I am owing up to what I said because I am still supporting what I think. The reason why I started this topic is to see if anyone else is having the same issues as me. I love the website and the people I would just like to be able to navigate it without it freezing. But hey that's just my 2 cents.

You might also try using the Shift key, or upper-case letters, as you had (or should've) learned in school, and some other punctuation, as is appropriate, such as when using contractions. A computer with a real keyboard makes this much easier to do.

and my camera is my phone and my computer.

Please don't use a camera as your verbal telecommunctions device. Use a phone for phone calls, and a computer for Internet browsing.

I mean hey they have cameras you can call on now days you never know haha.

Instant gratification culture or not, a piece of technology should function. Just because the website is slow doesn't mean folks aren't grateful for its existence. This is a forum with a heavy influence on repairing machines that aren't working optimally.

When this site bogs down and becomes inaccessible don't shake your cane at the rotten ingrate kids on your lawn, consider solving the problems with it. Serving html isn't a real difficult task and something clearly isn't working right, time to get out your feeler gauges and dwell meter and get things tuned up instead of being complacent.

Maybe my wording is a little harsh and offensive today, but just because the internet was slow in the 90s doesn't give a modern website an excuse to be broken and even less does it give anybody an excuse to attack peoples character for bothering to mention it. A week or so ago I was having complete failure to load pages here and the site was straight up inaccessible for periods of time, pointing this out is an important piece of diagnostic data for keeping my favorite forum from blowing a head gasket and going to the crusher if you know what I mean.

I think that TomCrowley's writing skills just need a little polish. Using "outdated" when he meant "too slow". Outdated implies that the format and content are antiquated or not of modern style.

Probably couldn't really do a good job making sure his post said what he meant because of his tiny screen and inability to see the whole post at one time. We live in the age of instant miscommunication.

Exactly what I mean^

I know I am not to good grammer wise when I type and I could have phrased things better but who doesn't when they are a kid, at least I Admit it but it is partly from typing on the phone since it always resizes and spell check isn't always on my side. Also for the record I have the half tablet half phone thing so I don't need that big of a magnifying glass to see...only a medium size one.

for example right now it took me 20 minutes of reloading the page and getting errors.

Have you mentioned the problem to your phone service provider? What phone? How old is it?Sometimes this site is a little slow to load, but what you're experiencing is excessive. I don't think any of us would stick around if that happened every time.

Do you not have access to a real computer? I realize it's a little harder to fit in a pocket, but it generally does what a computer is supposed to do rather than expecting a combination phone/camera/tablet to provide the same level of service.

I have Samsung note and its a year old. But I have actually been having mote trouble on my desktop computer where it flat out doesn't want to load. The main issue with me is my dad has a mac computer and I have an Android phone and the two aren't compatable with each other so it is a huge ordeal to upload a picture for a thread ( took me 15 minutes last time with numerous crashinges and 404 errors.)
